1 franc coin with gold lustre

[demonik1]

after sifting through yet another 20kilos of coins i found some delightfull stuff, among them was a french 1 franc coin dating 1854 with a gold tinge to it.its obviously not gold as it weighs too little but i cant find a listing for it anywhere as all the ones iv'e seen have a different reverse.anyone out there any ideas on value/grade etc..

many thanks

Krause #: KM 779.1

Value: Fine $25.00

VF 50.00

It looks like a pretty nice coin!
